Waking up

This morning I had to wake up to come to work at the hospital. Bri stayed with my Mom last night, so I was all alone with Mr. Kennedy (my cat). We first fell asleep on the couch, then around midnight, moved to my bed. I put a heating pad underneath my back to keep me warm at night... that way I don't have to turn the heater on in my house (am I smart or what?! or just crazy :)) Anyways, my alarm went off at 4:45am and I did my normal routine of hitting the snooze, yelling inside my head at myself as to why I didn't call in sick (I haven't called in sick in 4 years-but I still tell myself that before every shift)... then I fell back asleep and woke up to a purring cat on my face. He was trying to get to my heating pad underneath my back and the closest he could get was to sit on my face... so I moved him down to the heating pad and he was in love!!!! He was purring so loudly I didn't need my snoozed alarm to go off again. He was so sweet and I got dressed and he just...

Bachelor

I hate the TV show the bachelor. I think it is the stupidist show on TV. I tend to like reality television like the Biggest Loser, Teen Mom, America's Next Top Model... Anyways, last night Brianna really wanted to watch the Bachelor because "Pops loves this show!" So, I was watching it and moping, vaccumming, etc..... But I got me thinking... if I was on the bachelor, how would I describe myself and would I be desireable to the "bachelor". For the record (not that anyone reads my blog), I am very happy with my boyfriend, Rob and love him very much....so this is just theoretical. This is how I would describe myself... I am a single mother of a highly opinionated 7 year old (going on 15) who thinks she knows more than I do. I have two crazy dogs that pee when you pet them. I have two rats (yes, I like rats). I have the sweetest cat in the world who's fecal matter smells worse than any C-diff patient I have had. My mother is overbearing, and judg...

Update

Update on my cat, Mr. Kennedy, who got neutered and declawed. He is doing much better and getting around the house quicker now. I think I might looking into buying a new (used car). I would like to get an exterra nissan frontier truck with the roll bars on top. I have always liked those and I think this would a good time to buy and make car payments for the next couple of years. I could give this car to Bri when she turns 16 and then buy myself another car :) That is the plan. I will ponder that for awhile. Anyways, last night Brianna told me something her Dad said about me that was derrogatory that happend about five years ago. I told Brianna that I do not appreicate hearing gossip and that I did not like it that he was talking about me when I was not around. I asked her if she ever remembered me saying something negative about her Dad. She said no. Then, I went onto a soap box and explained to her how I disapprove of gossip and that if anyone said anything negative ab...

Frustrations

A doctor stole my seat at work so I have been displaced to another computer. No big deal, I just update my blog until he is finish with my squatting place I chose this am at 7am. Anyways, I've had some frustrations in my life currently and it's nothing I can't handle, but sometimes I wonder why I do handle it. When is enough,enough. I guess the right answer would be never, and God puts things in our lives to make us stronger ( I know that) but when is God trying to tell you to just give up and stop trying anymore. I try so hard all the time to do the right thing, be the best Mom, be the best friend, the best daughter/sister, nurse, employee, etc., etc.... I always pay my bills on time and everything is normally done without anyone having to lift a finger themselves. For the most part, I am independent except for this one little thing (that is a huge deal to me) but for the innocents sake, I put up with it. Over and over again. Hopefully, one day, I will be able to rid ...
